Experiment With Your Reality

Same old, same old. Same thoughts, same words, same routine, same version of yourself walking through the same kind of day. It gets exhausting. The weight of repetition settles in, and everything starts to feel dull and predictable.

Switch it up.

Play around with your identity. Experiment with your reality. Try mysticism. Test out things you’re cynical about, the ones you roll your eyes at but secretly want proof for. Push the edges of your experience. Let curiosity take the lead instead of skepticism.

When you meet new people, when you’re talking to strangers, shift your energy. Play with your character. Not in a fake way, but in a way that reminds you that you’re not locked into one version of yourself. We get so stuck in ideas of who we are, who we should be, what we should say, how we should act. But we’re in constant flow. Always shifting, always changing. Express yourself from the deepest, rawest parts of who you are without attaching to any of the identities you temporarily take on.

Throw in something unexpected. Add some spice to your life. Do something out of the blue. Shock people. Shock yourself. Keep people on their toes. See how freeing it is to exist outside of the rigid idea of who you think you are. Life gets interesting when you stop clinging to labels and expectations.

We crave change, even when we resist it. The worst thing is repeating yourself in a world that thrives on transformation. Think about artists, they move through different eras, different personas, evolving and expanding with each phase. They let themselves shapeshift, and in doing so, they keep creating, keep expressing, keep living. Breaking free from the shackles of identity and rigid personality archetypes we build, thinking they’ll make us better, when in reality, they’re suffocating us.

Trying to be the perfect version of yourself is draining. It locks you into an idea of who you think you should be instead of letting you just be. Less refining yourself into something smaller or more acceptable. It’s time to express, expand and explore.

Play around. Find out what you’re capable of. Try new ways of thinking, new ways of being. Step outside of the script you’ve been following and improvise. Life is more interesting that way.
